Repaso de matemáticas de cuarto grado (en curso)

This class is interactive, where I will break concepts down and check for understanding throughout the class. I scaffold and adjust my pacing to suit the needs of the students. I will use visuals, mnemonics, real-world examples, discussion, and guided notes, to ensure a deep understanding. Student participation is expected. I strive to make learning fun and instill confidence in the student.

Each class will begin with a 5-minute breakdown of the previous class’s homework. This is to make sure that everyone retained the lesson and can complete the assignment without help. I use the “I do, We do, You do” model to encourage retention and build confidence. After teaching a concept, I will explain a real-world example, guide the students in solving a problem, and then let them solve one independently to ensure they understand the concept. 

This is not intended to teach a full grade level for the first time; this is a review course to enhance the student’s math skills. We will review all foundational math learned in 4th grade to give the student a strong start to 5th grade math. This is also great for students who are currently in 5th grade, but could use a refresher on the foundational math. Students should have completed 4th grade, be in 4th grade, or be planning to skip 4th grade math. We will have class 2 times a week. The following is our tentative schedule:

Week 1 (Date TBD): Understand place value relationships. Read and write decimals.
Week 2 (Date TBD): Round, compare, and order whole numbers & decimals. 
Week 3 (Date TBD): Add and subtract multi-digit whole numbers & decimals. Word problems
Week 4 (Date TBD): Multiply up to 4 digit numbers by 1 digit, and two two-digit numbers
Week 5 (Date TBD): Divide up to 4 digit dividend by 1 digit divisor (with remainders). 
Week 6 (Date TBD): Recognize and generate equivalent fractions. Simplify fractions. 
Week 7 (Date TBD): Convert fractions. Add & subtract fractions and mixed numbers. 
Week 8 (Date TBD): Multiply fractions and mixed numbers. Mixed fraction word problems.
Week 9 (Date TBD): Angles & lines
Week 10 (Date TBD): Polygons
Week 11 (Date TBD): Measurement, area, and perimeter.
